Musk is completely in the tank for Trump.  He even appears with him at rallies.  Twitter ceased being a neutral(ish) "public square" for discussion after he bought it.

A lot of people who moved away from Puerto Rico honestly might agree with this statement. People who permanently move away from places tend to have a low opinion of those places.

I will now accept my accolades.

You don’t know many Puerto Ricans then, they almost universally love the island even though they might not live there

They clearly weren’t that offended…

Then why did they swing to Trump this election?

Around the margins it maybe impacted things slightly - Puerto Rican areas didn’t shift quite as hard to the right as Mexican, Cuban, Dominican, etc. areas.

Florida has 1.1M Puerto Rican Residents

Florida Latinos Overall
Trump 58 / Harris 42 (24 % of the Electorate)

Cubans
Trump 70 / Harris 30 (6 % of the Electorate)

Puerto Ricans
Harris 53 / Trump 45 (7 % of the Electorate)

I will say this that without the remark at the MSG Rally Trump would have probably carried Puerto Ricans outright in Florida.

Remember: Rubio & DeSantis carried the Cuban and Non-Cuban Vote in Florida during the 2022 Midterms.

Trump did better than Rubio/DeSantis in heavily Puerto Rican precincts.
